Are these wheels hot or not?

Tell me what you think of these wheels. I'm putting them on my Silver 07 G coupe. I don't know if I'm going to go with 19's or 20's yet. Any suggestions on a size?

Me i dont like them, i think mesh wheels should be flat with no concave to them.

But just My Opinion.

I love mesh wheels if done properly but these are awfully busy. These just strike me as "blingy". Maybe they'd be better suited for Chrysler 300 or something.

Well, IMO, the all time hands down winner is the BBS LM wheel. 6K might get you a set, I think they are about 1-1.5K per rim, not sure though, haven't priced them in a while.

work vsxx perhaps..I personally think LM's should only go on bimmers, to me they don't look good on other cars.

I'm not crazy about them, looks like a wheel they couldn't stop designing.

The Savaris don't look bad though.

+1 on his recommendations. I really like the VSXXs.

They look good, but I don't know about seeing them on a G. It just seems to go against the initial "sport" idea of our cars and tear it in 2 directions.

6k is a damn good budget. There are a lot of wheels out there. Just take your time and find what your really want.
